Rachel Maddow takes as an example among many of the federal government still bungling the response to the coronavirus crisis in the U.S., the CDC doing a remarkably poor job communicating important new guidance on COVID-19 symptoms. Aired on 4/27/2020.

Months Into Coronavirus Crisis, Federal Response Has Not Improved | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC
How many more of our children, parents and grandparents are going to die on the Republicans ideological altar?
@Yabba Dabba what a interesting concept.
The answer is to kick out the red welfare states.you know the ones: Alabama,kentucky,mississippi,Louisiana,etc. Maybe texas will have them.
Haivland Tuf đđ»Your blabs donât change fact that this ENTIRE mess rests solely on Chinese Communist Party. As Dems shoved âpeach hoax, â45â acted as deemed best at the time.
NONE WHATSOEVER !
Ralph Boyd check this https://youtu.be/TmWM51mTY_c I am so confused
Anyone else notice that the federal government’s response has also been the laziest?
NY Governor is the LAZIEST governor in the country. Adolf Whitmer is the Dumbest.
You are ignoring alot of information the media is lying to about quarantine and ventilators it will not work we have to face the disease
That’s Government in general, no matter who is in office.
Ro G, so, since when could the Goverment do anything quickly?
Telling people their getting a stimulus check…but wait…and wait…and wait…anybody hearing crickets?
NY’s response has been the laziest
We could have 5,000,000 cases, not just 1,000,000. We’re not testing enough to know. Lockdown is the only thing protecting the vulnerable. And if we open up with millions infected, the vulnerable are going to start catching the disease. Quickly.
Antibody tests from both California and New York show the real number of infected is in the millions already. That’s a good thing because it brings the death rate down considerably. Real death rate is between 0.01-0.05%. About the same as the normal flu.
We are testing more than anyone in the world. Do you realize there is more demand than supply of tests?
@Xing Wei You are absolutely right! New data indicates that there are 30+ strains of SARS CoV2 circulating the world right now.
And that in vitro, one of the more virulent strains induces 270 times more viral load of the milder strains.
This nightmare isn’t over.
@Lucky 3 We’re not testing more. We’re testing less than other countries – per capita. Per capita testing is the only stat that matters.
Italy has done 1/3 as many tests as the US in raw numbers, but Italy has less than 1/5 of the US’ population. So per capita, the US is way behind Italy – and 8 other countries.
Countries with most COVID-19 testing, per 1M people:
Portugal – 35,321
Switzerland – 29,637
Italy – 29,600
Spain – 28,779
Ireland – 25,785
Germany – 24,738
Russia – 21,511
Canada – 19,440
Belgium – 19,000
USA – 17,211
If we don’t test a large enough percentage of the population, it won’t give an accurate picture of the pandemic. We’ll be flying blind.
We should be testing 1,000,000 per day.
Emily Moss Lockdown the only way to go. Every country in the world know this even the tiny ones. Improvement in stats all over except America…right out of control. Could end with five million dead as one scientist said.
The crash happened so the the big boys could take all the money from the small guys
Exactly
How tall are you?đź
11.5 trillion withdrawn (not disappeared) in less than a month. 2019 mass CEO exodus, while stocks at all time highs? So they are no longer obligated to hold x amount of stocks. Now taxpayers money are supporting their corporations?? đđœđŸđŠ đ we the people allow it, so they will do it.
You give government too much power that’s what you get.
The precedent has been set that nothing, no matter how horrible, is worthy of the 25th Amendment.
Same situation with impeachment. The traitor was impeached on ample grounds, and the Senate would not even conduct a plausible trial.
The media is just playing whack a mole now, swinging their rubber hammer every time the President pops his head up. We are sick of it! MSM= ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!
Bob Smith ** VERIFIED BY SNOPES.COM. **
During a 27 April 2019 political rally in Wisconsin, U.S. President Donald Trump made a false and incendiary remark, claiming that doctors and pregnant women confer with each other to decide whether to âexecuteâ newborn babies. There is no truth to this statement.
In a speech in Green Bay, Trump stated, âThe baby is born. The mother meets with the doctor. They take care of the baby, they wrap the baby beautifully. And then the doctor and the mother determine whether or not they will execute the baby.â FALSE AND DANGEROUS RHETORIC.
@Nevyn of OZ 1973 I did read it. You didn’t. The 25th Amendment absolutely requires the Vice President when removing a President for incapacity. Without Pence it can’t happen. Why are you so hung up on getting this wrong?
@Givepeace Achance You’re dumb as a brick.
Imagine where we’d be if Senator John McCain hadn’t rescued ACA from smug Mitch McConnell and fawning Mike Pence.
McCain was a champion of Theranos and its CEO Elizabeth Holmes. The lauded darling of the scientific community for her breakthrough invetion, home blood testing kits. That is until federal charges were filed against her because her kits were phony. McCain was going to bring her company to Arizona. Fortunately for him he dropped dead after Holmes was charged.
@Margie Comer d a f
@skylx08 I think Holmes’s big fan in AZ was their Gov Doug Ducey.
@Margie Comer Oh? Then why is it still the worst system in the world? He did nothing to save anything. It was crap from the start.
@Yabba Dabba ….It depends on the State you live in. Most Red States with Republican Governors wouldn’t accept Medicaid for those who needed it. This through off the balance on Obamacare . REPUBLICANS WANTED OBAMACARE TO FAIL.
Trump destroys everything he touches.
How so?
We had our best economy ever. He kept his promises. Facts only please.
No.
Doug Rollings…absolutely…everything!!! Can we be surprised about ANYthing coming out of that disgusting orange face?? I become even more disgusted by the day ….with his every thought!! SMH
He’s the Anti-Midas.
All he did is bail out the corporations and tossed sum crumbs at the people, đ.
I remember when Donnie used to snark and carp about the Obamacare website shortcomings …
@Frank Elizalde Reality : The ‘ richest ‘ country on the planet , has no universal healthcare . Millions on job related healthcare just lost it , millions were already uninsured and the Republicans are trying to get pre-existing conditions struck down as we type . Obama debacle ? Look out the window Frankie . nearly 60,000 of your fellow Americans just joined the usual annual cull .
@wee huddy See, you’ve been listening to idiots like Madcow way too much. Compare the numbers to any prior U.S. epidemic. They’re not dissimilar. You can thank morons like yourself who overblow things on social media. COVID-19 is bad, but it’s not the end of the world that lefty idiots like you claim it is. Hundreds of thousands of people die every year. COVID-19 isn’t really making that much of a blip, but the lying media and the morons who believe it have overblown reality. YOU are part of the problem.
@Yabba Dabba Can’t fix stupid , but thankfully most stupid people have gathered in the US of A where they will gradually die out .Unlike the bloated sac of corruption currently leading the nation of idiots , I don’t watch TV all day, even though I have retired , I can read and I do . Perhaps a nice glass of Lysol would help calm your anger management problems and you can get back to the important business shooting your neighbours and beating your wife.
Itâs being heard in the fall by the Supreme Court. Republicans want it to be declared unconstitutional because they canât get rid of it any other way. Hope they lose. National Medicare and universal income looks pretty good right now.
wee huddy , Obama debacle remains as it is, a DEBACLE. Consequences of your numbers is direct result of Chinese Communist Party â negligenceâ.
Rachel forgot 1 more symptom , body temperature rises after listening to Trump
Blodpressure rises to. It is not healthy, even if you do not inject bleach
“President Biden…what do you plan to do to stop these constant ambushes from the Breivik Brigades upon our reporters?
That’s the TDS. Seek help.
@Sparky McSpark The briefings cause an increase in total dissolved solids?
The small business crash reminds me of the slot machines failing in Trump’s Casinos.
And that’s NOT his only FAILED BUSINESS..LOL..đ
@Deb
Yet still a billionaire.
May I ask how many people you employ?
Billy Ray Hoscheit Really? What you have seen his tax returns?
@Bug Man some earlier years are public. It is the last 5 years or so that matter.
Trumps casinos failed because he didn’t like the green 0 on the roulette table.
I am still waiting for Pence to demonstrate shoving a UV[-C] light up his rectum….it is bigger than a mushroom but he can take one for the team
@Stone Men I read what you posted and TRASHED it. It is GARBAGE and you believed it! now who is the dumbest person? But tRump-tards are awesome in their utter stupidity.
@Kenn Mossman No problem guy……https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18045413/
@Kenn Mossman No evidence UVA light kills?
@Stone Men Wow you dug up something, but letâs take a look;
1) no review by authoritative group
2) no peer review
3) no publication â it is just a paper
4) no repeated results
Then within the paper
1) no statistical analysis (which makes it useless
2) no spectrum analysis (which makes it useless
3) no mention of Lux levels (which makes it useless
4) no control group (which makes it useless
5) extremely limited in types of bacteria (which makes it useless
6) effect is nonexistent in presence of other compounds (which makes it pointless
7) bacteria is stated as being only inactivated (not killed
8) no indication of control variables (extremely poor and invalidates the results
9) no null hypothesis
This is high school science….did you finish high school? Did you fail Science?
@Kenn Mossman Donât forget your quote âthere is no knowledge that uva light kills bacteria and virusesâUVC is germicidal not UVA
To quote the ancients:
Where Trump has walked, no grass will grow.
@David Lafleche this is the first time I have met a bible thumper who has the EXACTLY correct idea to handle the planet’s overpopulation. I’m really amazed! That a Christian zealot would embrace fascism as the savior in much the same manner as he accept the Lord. well done David. I consider you a brother-in-arms… and I am an atheist welcome!
perhaps my analogy with imperial japan is weak.. Michael, are you prepared to face an ISIS type enemy?will your political principles be strong enough to carry you through this war you are about to engage into?
@mike boultinghouse I give you of your people
https://youtu.be/lkTqOf8SeLE
@David Lafleche zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
@mike boultinghouse LOL
55,000 Americans, who were alive three weeks ago, are dead.
All we have is a madman in the WH, talking about injecting disinfectants, into our bodies.
ddrose06 Injecting disinfectant & blaming China.
@Thamby Tango And being more of a hindrance than a help, when we need help and leadership from our federal government
There you go, lying like your hero Madcow. Trump never said anything about injecting Lysol or any disinfectant. That was a lie by the liars that we call FAKE NEWS. Don’t be a moron.
Yabba Dabba he suggested to the âmedical doctorsâ (yes he actually said medical doctors) looking into injecting disinfectant into the body.
And that’s just the ones they counted.
Don’t let up on these morons Rachel ’cause you got the smarts to bring ’em down.
@Randall Paul no need to be sorry. My concern was since you only wanted to express “one word” why would you spell that word incorrectly? If I choose to express myself in a language foreign to me I will usually search it on the internet before the need to edit. Spelling isn’t a big deal really, especially with auto correct and spell check like I’ve used with this reply. By the way Rachel Maddow is brilliant and those she puts on the hot seat deserve it. đ·đ
Can you name one major story she’s got right in the last few years?
@dagmastr12 more than the 12 yrs of content you have produced.
@dagmastr12 she not placed here to give facts they are a propaganda machine for the DNC bought and paid for. If you listen and watch closely you will pick out everything they focus on and ommit. All biased. It’s story telling not news. It’s all going to come out very soon. Heads are going to roll and corruption will be exposed. This Biden set up smells real bad. Hillary is in the mix on this one. She’s clever. A real strategist. But soeky for power and personal gain. She doesn’t care about America or the people. Only the power.
Who cares about Richard Mad Cow anyways? she is a lunatic
When Trump said he will Make America Great Again, he was being sarcastic.
Lilah Jamison BRILLIANT!! I hope your statement goes viral! đ
When you said you were going to be a decent person you were lying
So tired of these Trump supporter’s they’re just as bad as SJW’s. Ya’ll all claim Trump is going to make America great again? What has he done? Lock us down, steal our money, doesn’t care for the 2a, never locked up Hillary. But Trump is doing God’s work right… All president’s take from their people, red or blue.
Lilah Jamison when Obama talked about âhopeâ he was being sarcastic
you are so right
Even some smart people are saying “Let’s get back to normal ASAP!”
It’s become too easy to forget that “normal” is what got us into this mess in the first place.
“Tired of Winning” & “Be Best” are not substitutes for actual fact based policies and actions.
In 2019 Trump poured big money and even military might to stop “caravans” full of “ISIS and leprosy” BUT ignored “red alert” about COVID19.
THERE HAS TO BE AN ENQUIRY OVER THIS THE DEAD DESERVE TO BE HEARD.
@Lucky 3 in the time you have taken not to reply 100 Americas would be infected and spreading the virus.
It is a lot harder being the POTUS than you believe and think
Why do you have to defend Donald by ignoring so much that is how incompetent
Trump is.
i respect loyalty but blind loyalty sorry i do not.
@david olong Blind loyalty, no. There is still so much we are not being told, which started from the beginning. Blind hate like the media and most Dems is not the answer.
@david olong Of course we found out before the lock down, by that time it was too late to hide what was going on. There are many reports that China knew about this virus and even punished a doctor that tried to notify the world about it. WHO helped China prolong the spread of the virus. China banned our reporters to be in the country, then all of a sudden China has no new cases and only have just over 80,000 cases. Look beyond the lies. Unfortunately we may never know the truth, but I do know every leader is lying to some extent.
@Lucky 3 Blind loyalty, no. OH YES LUCKY 3
YOU STILL THINK A PRESIDENT WHO ADVOCATES BLEACH TO PEOPLE IS COMPETENT
There is still so much we are not being told, TRUE BUT YOU STILL THINK TRUMP CALLING EVERY ONE FAKE WHO CRITICISES HIM IS NORMAL
which started from the beginning. OF 2016 WHEN HE SAID THE WORLD RESPECTED F.B.I ARE CORRUPT DEEP STATE SPIES AND RUSSIA AND PUTIN ARE HONEST
AND THE FREE PRESS IS FAKE NEWS?
Blind hate like the media SUDDENLY TO ASK AND REPORT ANYTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT INDIVIDUAL ONE, SORRY THE CHOSEN ONE, MEAN YOU HATE – IT USE TO MEAN YOU WAS A GOOD JOURNALIST
and most Dems is not the answer.
I DONT CARE WHAT PARTY YOUR FROM – ALL I REQUIRE IS ACCOUNTABILITY AND HONESTY
@Lucky 3 ps you still have not answered my Easy Questions,
“The drink-the-Lysol artist” lol
The Trump administration is and has failed the, UNITED STATE’S OF AMERICAN. And need to be held to account. VOTE BLUE IN NOVEMBER.
Lock Him Up!
@Jacob C. Blue is not in power.
The Democratic party see enemy of the people
@CTM straight out of hitler’s mein kampf?
@RenĂ© OlguĂn no straight out of Jim Crow the leader of the Democratic party liberal, the enemy of the people
Rachel Maddow is simply amazing to listen to. She is currently my favorite anchor.
Jahonius Still got the phony accounts giving your bipolar conspiracy some accolades? Of course you have offered no retraction of your entire life since The Trump Whitehouse, Since your Russian LIES have been exposed…..NO SHAME, NO MORALS, JUST A BIPOLAR YOUNG MAN SPOUTING NONSENSE ON A NATIONAL FORUM TO A BUNCH OF MISERABLE, SELF LOATHING AMERICANS. LET US KNOW HOW ALL OF THE APPLES TASTE……NEVERMIND NOBODY WOULD EVEN TRUST WHAT YOU SAID. PLEASE TAKE THIS FORGERY OF A NEWS PROGRAM OFF THE AIR, TOO MANY LIES, PATHETIC
